EVENING EDITION.
" STUDIES IN THE SOUTH. "
Such is the title of a very sensible,
moderate, and in the main correct se
ries of papers that is appearing in
the Atlantic Monthly. We have re
f erred approvingly to these papers be
fore. They are incomparably the
kindest and most discriminating dis
cussions of our great section that we
have seen since the war. We marvel
at the fact that a New Englander
should have seen so correctly and
written so fairly. There is no virus
in the four numbers that have thus
far appeared. The spirit of the
articles is excellent and the general
results of observation are much in ac
cord with the facts. The author has
not viewed tne ooutn irom eitner a
a 3 l rr , t e . -l
partisan or sectional standing-point,
but he has swept over several States,
and we have no doubt has given
an accurate statement based upon
personal observation. We regret he
did not stop for a few weeks in North
Carolina He viewed Virginia and
then dashed via Greensboro further
South. We hope he will visit our
State before he completes his series
and give North Carolina a fair hear
ing. If -he will visit our immense
fisheries, at one of which 600,000
fish were caught at one draught of
the seine, then see our cotton and
tobacco lands, our rice fields and
factories, our immense mineral de
posits and forests, our wonderful
water power and fruit sections, our
diversified and magnificent scenery,
and will then tell all about it he will
prove himself a very true friend as
well as a very useful citizen.
We must content ourselves with a
glance at a few of the many points
in his last very instructive paper in
the June number. First, he points
to "a great Southern industry."
Reader, you cannot guess in an hour
what it is that demands a long para
graph from this close New England
"chiel" who has been "amang" us
"takin notes." Well, it is the dog
crop. There now. This sharp ob
server says but for the dogs sheep
raising and wool-growing would be
very profitable. He says the rearing
of dogs "is always incompatible"
with those other industries. He
gravely remarks of dogs: "I did
not find anything else, I think, that
can be attributed to the South gene
rally." In the dog business he thinks
our section decidedly "solid." He
has been moved by the unanimity of
sentiment and the universal preva
lence of the dog. He says "the popu
lar devotion to the rearing of dogs
recalls the animal worship of the.
ancient Egyptians." He does not
understand it. He did not ascertain
that dogs were profitable, but still
they are increasing with extreme ra
pidity. Even so. There is too much
"nigger in the wood-pile" for politi-
cal health and too much dog in the
sheep walks for profit from wool
producing and sheep raising. The
New Englander says of the univer
sal dog:
"They occupy a place of such promi
nence in the general life of the South, and
so dominate public sentiment and influence
public morality, that one is. constantly in
clined to the conviction that their rearing
and care must be among the most impor
tant and valuable pursuits of the people."
The dog mania has held posses
sion in the South from immemorial
time. The sheep have no friends in
the sunny land. The legislators can
not get together, like the two char
acters in "Mascot," and sing "sheep,
I love." It is all dog with the So
lons and no sheep save when dianer
time comes. Then, like their friends,
the dogs, they become most vora
cious, and show that they have a
mighty hankering after mutton. He
shows what is-doing in some sections
in sheep raising in spite of bad laws
or the want of proper fostering.
There is one other point we wil
touch upon and leave other mat-1
ters until another day. He writes
about grape growing and the pro
duction of wines in Virginia and
Georgia. He ought to visit North
Carolina. Here is the home of the
grape. It was in this State that the
most luscious grapes on the Conti
nent were found by the early ex
plorers and settlers. It is here that
the Concord, the Isabella, the Cataw
ba, the Scuppernong, and other de
lightful varieties, are indigenous.
Referring to the practical spirit
abroad in the South, and the excel
lent service the newspapers are doing
for the various industries, this wide
awake New England writer gives
the following advice and warning.
He says:
"Some of the most intelligent agricul
turists of our country are in the Southern
States. There is, however, a greater dis
position to look to the national government
for aid to agriculture than is wholesome or
desirable. The prosperity of the Southern
nfnln will lvo mnw rAfil nnn rinrnhlAlf thov'
..... " " J
depend upon themselves. The more fully
the industries of the people (as well as their
educational institutions and activities) can be
kept free from the entanglements of parti
san politics, the better it will be for the in
terests of all concerned."
These are wise words; let us profit
by them.
A POINT.
To publish the best newspapers re
quires immense patronage. The un
questioned excellence of the leading
New York papers is based on the
wide field at their command and the
large receipts for advertising. The
Herald has a net income of half a
million yearly, and Jim Bennett
spends much of this in doing nothing
but idling and dawdling and trying
to kill time. The other big papers
have large resources and receipts, and
hence they are able to procure
the very best available newspaper
talent and experience and to create a
net work of correspondents through
out this country and indeed the world.
A paper with an income of a million
ought to be better than a paper with
an income of a hundred thousand
dollars. A paper with an income of
fifty thousand has great advantages
over one with but an income of twenty
thousand. And so the rule will ap
ply to still more limited resources.
The Baltimore Day discusses the
superior resources of the New York
dailies intelligently. A correspon
dent wishes to know whv the Balti-
more dailies do not equal the New
York dailies. The reply is full and
complete, and we quote a paragraph.
It says:
"The reason that New York papers have
the income which makes almost any ex
pense in procuring the freshest news and
tne ablest journalists almost a matter of in
difference to them, is to be found in the
liberal support given them by the business
men of that city. This works doubly for
the building up of these journals first, by
giving them the revenue necessary to the
production of a really first-rate newspaper.
and by allowing them to retain the space
in which to attractively present the news
so as to give their readers the worth of their
money, and thereby deserve and secure an
enormous circulation.
We notice that the State Dem
ocratic Executive Committee of
Georgia have laid down a law of limi
tation in the matter of delegates to
the approaching State Convention.
A few counties adjacent to the capi
tal will not be allowed to send from
fifty to two hundred delegates to
prevent a proper organization and
proper deliberation thereafter. The
rule adopted is- each county may
send twice the number of delegates
that there are representatives in the
Legislature. This is enough surely.
The North Carolina Legislature con
sists of 170 members. It strikes us a
convention of 340 members is large
enough. We would rather see 170
delegates than double that number.
Large bodies are unwieldy. The Ra
leigh News- Observer says the State
Committee will issue another circular
aS to the number of delegates, &c
It ought to do something to prevent"
the few counties around Raleigh
from4aking possession. If it con
tinues there will be a general move
ment to have the State Convention
assemble elsewhere.
There is some awakening as to first
principles even in the North. The
able work of ex-President Davis and
the earnest protests of such men as
Judge Black, James Parton and
other leaders of thotio-ht are havino- a
certain influence in drawing men's
attention to the grand fundament
als of popular liberty and a true
democratic government a govern
ment of the people and by the
people and for the people. Some
of the Northern papers, such as the
New York Sun, New Haven Regis
ter, Washington Register, and Har
risburg Patriot, have been discussing
the true principles of our govern
ment and the dangers that threaten
it. The following from the last
named paper is timely. It says:
ine Jeriersoniau revival which is
spreading over the country gives profound
concern to many of the self-styled inde
pendent journals as well as to the organs of
the miscalled Kepublican party. Both pro
fess to regard it as reactionary, and the
epithet of 'Bourbon' is as freely applied to
it by one class as by the other. 1 he difn
culty of these journals is that their editors
are educated in the Federal school of poll
tics and either have no conception of the
true Republicanism preached and practiced
by Thomas Jefferson, or, if comprehending
it, they hate and despise it because of its
thoroughly Democratic character. They
have no faith in the capacity of the people
tor selt-government, and Ion? for the dav
when the powers reserved in the Federal
Constitution to the States and the people
shall be exercised without let or hindrance
by a central authority at Washington.
Another portion of the press antagonizes
the new Jeffersonism simply because it has
been carried along by the tide which has
swept our institutions toward consolidation
during and since the rebellion."
The declinature of Dr. Haygood
reduced the number of newly elected
Bishops to four. There are but two
of the old Bishops, McTyeire and
Keener, who are able to do full
work. Bishops Pierce and Kavanaugh
do but little. Bishop Paine has been
relieved of duty because of advanced
age and infirmities. So there are
but six Bishops to supervise the vast
work stretching from ocean to ocean
and even into Mexico. The Star
said an eirort would be made to
change the name. A report has been
made to get rid of the word South,
and give the word Methodist a more
emphatic position Episcopal Meti
odist instead of Methodist Episcopal,
It is a wonder that the chan
was not made long ago. A resolu
tion complaining of the doctrinal
teaching of the American Bible Soci
ety has been introduced. The com
plaint is that Calvinism is taught in
the Spanish version. The Baptists

tion held at Greenville, S. C. So

We are delighted to know that
Manone is losing ground in Virginia.
The Stalwart Administration is mov
ing to his support, but nevertheless
his influence is said to be waning.
We see it mentioned that the Front
Royal Readjuster- and the Bland
Court House Smith and West have
abandoned his standard. The man
who endeavors to revolutionize his
native State by repudiating honest
debts and by stigmatizing the purest
and best people is unworthy of pub
lic confidence. The Confederate
General who for the meanest party
purposes can combine with the tra-
ducers and enemies of Virginia and
the South to brand with condemna
tion his former companions in arms, is
not worthy of countenance, but richly
merits the censure he receives.
The very remarkable weather du
ring the last thirty days has had a very
unfavorable effect upon crop pros.
pects. In many parts of the State,
as we learn from our exchanges, the
cold weather has necessitated the
ploughing up of much of the cotton
and replanting. The same condition
of thiugs exists in South Carolina
and other States.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Both the tariff conventions
of the barons, held last year at Chi
cago and New York, declared with
emphasis that the protected manu
facturers must have "more protec
tion." That means heavier taxation.
That means more injustice, more
bullying, more robbery. There is no
"malicious falsehood" about this.
The Ways and Means Committee
has now in its hands, ready to be
sprung on the House, a bill very
largely increasing the duties on iron
and steel. It is absurd, under such
circumstances, for tbe barons' organs
to swear that they are laboring in
the interest of the people. They are
doing no such thins:. They are. in
reality, obstructing "the nation's de
velopment" by cutting the trade of
the country off from foreign markets;
by limiting the markets for the pro
ducts of "the great army eneraered in
the nation's development." Secretary
Folger says: "It seems that the
plan most just for giving relief is to
reduce taxation;" but the protection
ists in Congress turn a deaf ear to
all such1 wise suggestio ns. They will
have no tax reduction. Louisville
Courier-Journal, Dem.
- Mr. Blaine's idea of the
"Monroe doctrine," or of the "Adams
doctrine," whichever it may be called,
seems to have been, during his brief
career in the State Department, that
an association ot Americans nngui
buy of foreigners claims against
Peru, organize themselves into a
joint stock company under the laws
of Georgia, or some other American
State, and thereby not only com
mand the "good offices" of the go
vernment of the United States as
against Peru, but get the company
itself in some way under the protec
tion of the "Monroe doctrine.

No Claim on Missouri.
Des Moines Mail.
Jenkins was travelling in Missouri
last year before the Presidential
election, and in the right car across
from him two men were arguing as
to the probable result of the election.
Says one:
"Hancock's the man."
"No, sir; Garfield'll get it," was
the reply.
Suddenly an Adventist sitting be
hind them spoke up and said:
"My friends, do you know who is
going to be our next President? It
is the Lord, who is coming at once
with his angels to reign."
Quick as thousrht Jenkins, imasr-
jnjn? that some third nartv candi-
date had been mentioned, sprung up,
slapped the Millerite on the shoulder,
and cried out:
"Bet you twenty-five dollars he
don't carry Missouri."
OUR STATE CONTEMPORARIES.

The question now arises, shall we "seek
to perpetuate good government in the
eastern counties ? Who says no ? Who
is willing to throw our brethren of the east
back under negro rule in their home mat
ters V The west is prosperous, and her
prosperity is largely the result of the con
servative action of our party. It springs
from the wise policy which has character
ized the councils of the Democratic party,
The centre is prosperous, and to-day the
east is also full of prosperity. Shall we
undo what has been done ? A gentleman
told us tne other day that formerly under
Republican rule he had paid as high as five
hundred dollars tax on his plantation in
Jones county, but now the tax was oue
hundred and twenty-five dollars. Now that
is but a sample. Are not the people in
these negro counties right in asking for a
continuation ot good government? Raleigh
Jews-Observer.
Those who suppose that every man who
voted against prohibition is a Republican
arc vory much mistaken. Because theanti-
Prohibitiormts are dissatisfied with the ac
tion of some of the Democratic leaders they
are not going to forsake the party, not by
any means. The Democratic party is as
old as the trovernment itself, and it would be
ridiculous to suppose that such intelligent
men as some of the anti-prohibition leaders
are will lay to the great Democratic party
that which belongs only to a few leaders.
The independent movement is composed of
llcpublicaus and sore beaded Democrats
and are unworthy the notice of pjiuciple
loving men. Wilson mjtings.

PLAIN
TRUTHS
The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and ennch the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities arcc that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition ; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Brown's Iron Bitters will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the hlood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus dnvc disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is joi
tivcly not injurious.
